Bethany and Tabitha are cousins who own Wellspring Photography and we were so excited that they asked us to capture some updated pictures of the two of them for their website.  Where do we begin with these two? I felt like after we photographed them and walked around downtown Toledo we really got to know them. We had been emailing back and forth for a while but never met in person (I think that happens to a lot of photographer friends out there) until a few weeks ago.  Things that we have in common aside from our passion to be behind the lens are: an extreme joy for the sweeter things in life, laughing  A. LOT. , shoes, TJ-Maxx, and the ability to dream BIG. Which, leads to one of my favorites of you both: Laughing in front of downtown Toledo’s famous Dream sign. What? The sign’s not famous? Well, it should be considering it is awe-some.  I admit that I was a little nervous to photograph these two girls who also happen to be really great photographers…what if they don’t like them? What if it’s not what they have in mind? What if I trip? LOL.  BUT, they were so easy to photograph because they don’t take themselves too seriously and they happen to always be laughing.  You girls rock both behind and in front of the camera. Thank you both for hanging out with JEM and we need to do it again!

Last year one of our clients made us delicious cakeballs. I remember them sitting in the studio for a couple hours, not knowing how incredibly delicious   a cakeball really tasted.  Infact, you don’t know until you experience it for yourself. Yes, it is an experience. After we tried one, we each understood that we had missed out on these for way too long and we had to make up for lost time. This Christmas season rolled around and right after Thanksgiving Jennifer made the excited statement that she couldn’t wait any longer for Jill’s cakeballs.  She was going to place an order to ensure a timely turnaround.  This order was eaten between all the employees at JEM within a few days.  Please mind you that we only have one other worker here. 40 cakeballs between three girls means these are THE MOST MELT- IN -YOUR -MOUTH VELVET CAKE BALLS EVER!!!  We had to place two more orders and we are so overjoyed to have chased clients/friends out of our studio saying, ‘YOU MUST  TRY ONE OF THESE, THEY WILL CHANGE YOUR LIFE!!!!’

So, here is to our sweet friend Jill who just started a facebook fanpage called, Let’s Have a Ball.  If you happen to see this post and this cakeball changed your life…or atleast a little…show some love and let Jill know how much you enjoyed her mad cakeball skills.  Merry Christmas!
